I'm A House Gangster presents The Gangstercast

Riki Inocente - Gangstercast 09

Born in 1977 in the UK town of Sheffield, Riki Inocente
discovered House music after moving to London. After a few
years of religious record buying he was playing the best
underground parties in London - at Ministry of Sound, The Arches,
The Aquarium, Limelight, The Gas Club and Bagley’s, as well as
starting his own BIG parties. A spell in France led him to
Phil Weeks and Robsoul Recordings who signed the track'Soultrain'
for a sampler, which in turn led to hook-ups back in London with
Hector Moralez, Chris Simmonds and Jordan Peak. Producing
music with Darren Roach of EBM under the moniker Bluntz &
Roachez, the duo have signed music to Sneak's Magnetic Recordings,
remixed for DJ Sneak Classics and will release an EP for our very
own I'm A House Gangster imprint.

Riki's Gangstercast saw him selecting tracks that best represent
his own sound: "Deep, tribal, underground house with heavy b'lines
and solid drums; Music that makes you move, and messes with your
mind." Speaking of the House Gangster movement he says: "We
are a family, I've met HG fam all over the world and the link
between all of them is their love for good house music. It
doesn't matter if you make, play, or just listen to it, too many
people have devoted there lives to this scene through the years to
let men in suits and their puppets take the name of our culture and
try and cross brand it with a commercial euro pop sound. I ain't
goin' to roll like that. And that's why I do what I do, and
why House Gangsters all over the world are doin' it to." Amen
to that!
